Roundup of Global Volcanic Activity
Fogo (Cape Verde): Mild explosive activity continues from the vent, at least intermittently, but there is no longer significant lava effusion. According to local observers, the eruption continues to decline overall and might be ending in a near future. Works have started to reopen the road into the caldera to reach Ilheu de Losna and Portela/Bangaeira.
Karymsky (Kamchatka): Another small ash plume was detected by Tokyo VAAC this morning. The volcano's activity has been characterized by intermittent strombolian to small vulcanian explosions for years. Clear weather over the past days allowed the detection of more emissions than normally (when most events unless very large go unnoticed due to cloud cover).
Kilauea (Hawai'i): The June 27th lava flow remains active, but its advance has been mainly in form small and slow breakouts along its margins, widening it. The most advanced flow front is still 600 m upslope from Highway 130 near the Pāhoa police and fire stations.
